A strange & unknown problem with N73

11 replies · 4,653 views · Started 05 November 2006

😡 I'm totally freaked out as I have never faced or heard of such problem as I've been using symbian phones for some time now. The problem is I installed some themes a few days back and then after a couple of days I again installed some more themes but found out that the themes I installed earlier has been deleted and been repalced with the newly installed themes. I tried to install the previous themes but the phone says unable to install whereas I can install the new themes easily.

This happened to me twice today as whenever I install new themes the previous themes get deleted and cannot be installed again. It's such a weird problem.

Can anyone help me out me please? I have never faced this problem with my 6630 or N70. Plz any suggestions????:con? :con?

Thanks for the reply mate. So what can I do to solve this problem? Cos I really need to install the previous themes again? Help me out.

Why do you need so many themes on your phone anyway? Can't you just choose one that you like? Anyway, delete themes from application manager and then reload. I read somewhere that if you load more than 11 then you will lose the old ones and not be able to get them back.

Just N73 themes,i have now 25 themes installed,only 7 i can find back in appl.manager.
Why i installed themes?? because i like them,betty boob,tweety and its a option in the phone,so i use it.:tongue:

Thanx for all the suggestions guys:icon14: . But the problem still remains and now I have around 20 themes installed but the application manager shows only 7 or 8. But the other themes installed are working properly, somehow they are not shown in the app. manager. And still I cannot install my previous themes that got deleted. It's annoying me very much. Is this a bug or something in N73? :con?

Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanx once again.

for the themes that cant be installed back again you must format your phone because maybe you format your memory card and there is some file in the themes that are in the phone memory because you did not remove them properly.
i encounter it already

for the 20 themes that are installed that cant be found i dont know what happen maybe in the new firmware will fix it.

correct? not?

To delete the themes that are'nt in the app manager,delete them via mass storage with the cable.

I reall really hate this problem with the themes as i love my themes but the most i've had on my N73 is 17.I had to format the phone at least 5 times when themes i like get overtaken by another.Only an exceptional theme now gets on my N73 as i dont want to lose any of the others that are my favourites.
